(1,989 posts)No one expects the gay community to be quiet. But, Ms. Obama can't personally fix inequality. The implication of the poster, I believe is...and, I could be wrong, is that the hecklers cause doesn't give her a right to do whatever she wants whenever she wants. Life doesn't work that way. We are painfully aware of that in this group.
Also, no amount of belittling, setting up false statements about things said here advances equality. It's circular firing. And, it's an example of what many of us are sick of. You've got feelings and needs, and yet you waltz into this group as if we don't have concerns that are just as important. It's not enough for you that we support equality. We have to also agree with every methodology someone uses to get to the finish line. That's not going to happen. People have a right to disagree. With the civil rights movement, not everyone agreed. There was a place for both Malcolm and Martin.
But, by some strange sense of superiority, you waltz in here...and actually proceed to have an argument, with no one. You're mad and looking for enemies. A bull in a china shop hoping to break something. Your version of heckling. I guess you deserve the microphone in the African American group?
